1

Which of the following is not a prime number?

65% Answer Correctly

9

2

7

5


Solution

A prime number is an integer greater than 1 that has no factors other than 1 and itself. Examples of prime numbers include 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11.


2

4! = ?

85% Answer Correctly

3 x 2 x 1

5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4 x 3


Solution

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.


3

Monica scored 93% on her final exam. If each question was worth 3 points and there were 270 possible points on the exam, how many questions did Monica answer correctly?

57% Answer Correctly
89
81
88
84

Solution

Monica scored 93% on the test meaning she earned 93% of the possible points on the test. There were 270 possible points on the test so she earned 270 x 0.93 = 252 points. Each question is worth 3 points so she got \( \frac{252}{3} \) = 84 questions right.


4

A circular logo is enlarged to fit the lid of a jar. The new diameter is 65% larger than the original. By what percentage has the area of the logo increased?

51% Answer Correctly
20%
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)%
25%

Solution

The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr2 where r is the radius of the circle. The radius of a circle is its diameter divided by two so A = π(\( \frac{d}{2} \))2. If the diameter of the logo increases by 65% the radius (and, consequently, the total area) increases by \( \frac{65\text{%}}{2} \) = 32\(\frac{1}{2}\)%


5

A bread recipe calls for 2\(\frac{3}{8}\) cups of flour. If you only have \(\frac{5}{8}\) cup, how much more flour is needed?

62% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{8}\) cups
1\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups
2 cups
1\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups

Solution

The amount of flour you need is (2\(\frac{3}{8}\) - \(\frac{5}{8}\)) cups. Rewrite the quantities so they share a common denominator and subtract:

(\( \frac{19}{8} \) - \( \frac{5}{8} \)) cups
\( \frac{14}{8} \) cups
1\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups
